Naomi Campbell is just as much a trailblazer in the real estate industry as she is on the runway. With an estimated net worth of $80 million and a career spanning over three decades, the British supermodel has amassed an impressive property portfolio. Her homes around the world showcase her taste and lifestyle.
From a secluded Kenyan retreat to a futuristic Moscow mansion, Campbell’s residences are works of art. They also reflect her multifaceted personality and provide a sanctuary from the spotlight’s glare.
The Malindi Villa in Malindi, Kenya
Campbell’s property, located on the gorgeous shores of Malindi, Kenya, exemplifies calm and organic life. This beachfront home came as part of a luxury eco-resort created by her former partner, Italian businessman Flavio Briatore. It offers peace and a reconnection with nature. The expansive structure smoothly integrates indoor and outdoor rooms. There’s also a saltwater pool stretching from the living room. Vaulted ceilings covered with palm fronds and voile-curtained pergolas create an otherworldly atmosphere throughout the property. Additionally, locally sourced African furniture adorns the interior spaces. The home also has authentic artwork and sculptures that pay homage to the region’s cultural heritage.
The Capital Hill Residence in Moscow
Commissioned by Campbell’s former partner, Russian billionaire Vladislav Doronin, the Capital Hill Residence in Moscow is an architectural masterpiece. Conceived by the late renowned architect Zaha Hadid, it is within the Barvikha Forest. The 35,520-square-foot mansion boasts a futuristic design. The structure has two interconnected modules. One follows the contours of the sloping site, while the other is above the surrounding vegetation, offering unobstructed views of the azure sky—a specific request from Campbell. While initially planned as a love gesture, the couple’s breakup in 2012 left the fate of this architectural masterpiece uncertain.
The Eye of Horus Eco-House on Cleopatra Island, Turkey
For Campbell’s 41st birthday in 2011, Doronin reportedly promised her an ultra-modern eco-home on the historic Cleopatra Island in Turkey’s Gulf of Gökova. Inspired by the legendary love story of Roman general Marc Antony and Egyptian queen Cleopatra, the island boasts a rare sand composed entirely of seashells. Designed by Spanish architect Luis de Garrido, an expert in sustainable architecture, the proposed 25-bedroom residence was envisioned as an off-grid, self-sufficient haven. From an aerial perspective, the central dome and surrounding solar panels were intended to form the iconic Eye of Horus – an ancient Egyptian symbol of protection, paying homage to Campbell’s love for the region. While the existence of this eco-haven remains unknown, other stories claim it was never developed due to the island’s protected status.
The New York City Penthouse in NYC, U.S.
Details regarding Campbell’s New York home are highly private, but sneak peeks from her YouTube channel give us exciting ideas. Curious onlookers have conjectured that the supermodel lives in a penthouse apartment in Tribeca, New York. The apartment seems to have a floating staircase, expansive views of the Hudson River, and floor-to-ceiling windows. Campbell also previously held a luxurious apartment at the exclusive 500 Park Avenue in the early 2000s. It had a teak-lined bathroom and a sunken tub large enough to accommodate four people. The three-bedroom home also included double-height ceilings, a library, and a large dressing room – an appropriate retreat for a fashion icon.
